Lugar agradable para tomarse un refrigerio por el casco antiguo de la ciudad. Puedes comer unas pizzas, sándwiches... o jugar al billar.

No puntuó comida por no comer. Pero la atención, el servicio y el local, de 10. Y los Gintonic bien servidos, a un precio de escándalo. Vuelvo seguro.

Como local no es gran cosa, pero nos atendieron con tanta simpatía e interés que bien vale 5 estrellas. Cafetería donde tomar buen café y licores. Lo encontrarás al final del puente de Trajano.
